The benefits

tend has always looked after its people. We’ve consistently invested the time, money, and imagination it takes to be an employer people really want to join.

As part of the tend team, you’ll get all the practical perks and rewards you’d expect from a conscientious brand at the top of its game. You’ll get much more than that, though.  You’ll also get to work with supportive, like-minded people who are happy in their work, and love getting the job done.  People-people, whose appetite for success comes with an attitude of care.  tend kind of people.

Hybrid and flexible working

As a modern organisation which moves with the times, we’re big believers in having a healthy work-life balance. It’s all part of us understanding the moral and commercial value of having a happier, healthier workforce. In light of this, whenever possible we make flexible hours a standard practice.

Wellbeing day

As well as giving you a paid day off to do something charitable like volunteer, we’ll give you a paid day to look after your own mental health and well-being. Book a massage or swim in a mountain lake – whatever gives you the boost you need.

Life Lounge

Just another simple perk of the job, this time giving you access to hundreds of great offers and discounts catering for every budget. Enjoy LIFE Lounge in stores or online at a number of well-known retailers.

Employee Assistance Helpline

We all need a little help sometimes. Available 24/7 to you and any over-16s in your household, our helpline gives you access to information, advice and counselling for support with any issue.

Grandparent paid leave

We understand that family milestones matter at every stage of life, so our pioneering Grandparent Leave provides two weeks of fully paid time off to welcome and bond with your new grandchild.

Bereavement leave

We’re here for you in the hard times as well as the good ones. Our compassionate Bereavement Leave provides two weeks of paid time off following the loss of an immediate family member, giving you the space and support you need to grieve and be with your loved ones.

Electric vehicle scheme

We’re proud to offer an Electric Vehicle Scheme in partnership with The Electric Car Scheme, giving eligible employees access to new or used electric cars through a cost-effective salary exchange. It’s a great way to save on tax, reduce your carbon footprint and drive sustainably, all with flexible packages that can include insurance, maintenance and even a home charger.

Holidays

We all know the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance and taking time for yourself. From day one, we offer 25 days of annual leave, 3 additional paid days off over Christmas, plus bank holidays. You’ll also get your birthday off (because let’s face it, working on your birthday should be illegal!), and you can even buy up to 5 extra days of annual leave.

Pension

Looking after your future has never been more important. That’s why you’ll be set up with a NEST pension from the day you start working with us. This is done on a 3% salary sacrifice basis, helping to minimise your tax contributions. You can opt out of this benefit if you prefer, of course.

Life assurance

Your well-being matters beyond the workplace. Our Life Assurance benefit offers peace of mind by providing your loved ones with financial protection when they need it most.

Sickness pay

At tend, we understand that health issues can arise unexpectedly. That’s why you’ll enjoy discretionary staff sick pay from day one of your employment with us. This is to ensure that our employees can take the time they need to recover without worrying about their financial stability.

Refer a friend

tend is always on the lookout for superb new talent. If you recommend someone into our business, you’ll earn yourself a little bonus! Just a thank-you from us for enhancing the team.

Company events

From Christmas parties to our quarterly team meet-ups – we’re a company that likes to get along and really values connecting face-to-face.

Enhanced maternity and adoption leave

Our generous Enhanced Maternity Package supports new birth mothers and adopting mothers throughout their first year, offering 12 weeks at full pay, followed by 12 weeks at half pay, then additional statutory maternity pay through to week 39. It’s a package that gives you the financial security to focus on what matters most during this precious time.

Employee financial wellbeing

We’ve partnered with an independent financial organisation, Prospera, to offer all of our colleagues free, no-obligation financial well-being support. This can include advice on areas like mortgages, savings accounts, investment planning, retirement planning, protection planning, debt planning and wills.

Gifts

Ever had an Easter egg or Advent calendar from your company? No more spoilers here; you’ll have to find out for yourself!

Enhanced paternity

We believe every parent deserves dedicated time to bond with their new child. New fathers can fully embrace those unforgettable early weeks through our Enhanced Paternity Package, providing two weeks of fully paid leave.

The Give Back Project

Our people are empowered to make a difference, both in the workplace and beyond. The tend Give Back Project gives every member of staff a paid day off each year to volunteer for a cause close to their heart.

Whether it’s supporting a local charity, getting involved in a community project or using your skills to help others, you’ll be able to dedicate a day to doing something that’s meaningful to you – and get paid for it, too!
